West Coast rapper Snoop Dogg and Tank are not here for a couple social media giants. The music veterans have come forward to speak up in defense of Minister Louis Farrakhan following a Facebook ban.
Both Snoop Dizzle and Tank went to Instagram to defend the minister with heartfelt messages.
Today, Facebook sent shockwaves through the media after announcing banning Farrakhan and other high-profile.
Facebook announced Thursday afternoon that it had designated some high-profile people, including Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, who’s notorious for using anti-Semitic language, and right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, as “dangerous” and said it will be purging them from its platforms. On Thursday, Jones and InfoWars will be barred from Instagram as well. Other people banned on Thursday included Paul Nehlen, an anti-Semite who unsuccessfully ran for Congress in 2016 and 2018, and fringe right-wing media personalities Laura Loomer, Milo Yiannopoulos and Paul Joseph Watson.

In additional to Facebook, the social media giant has reportedly removed his content from Instagram.
Minister Louis Farrakhan‘s profile was one of many marked “dangerous” removed from Facebook and its other services including Instagram and dedicated fan pages. In February, Farrakhan said “the powerful Jews are my enemy” during his Saviours’ Day speech in Chicago. The Mark Zuckerberg-created platform has been under heavy scrutiny about the amount of extremist content and hate speech that appears on the service. The latest ban comes just one month after the company extended its ban on hateful content to include anyone that supports or promotes White nationalism and White separatism. (EBONY)
